Gimp 2.6 uses GTK2. There is a porting branch to GTK3 in git for master. Some smarter behavior about extra axes is expected there. GTK3 should have XI2 support. Setting up pad as extended device is of limited value to the actual user, because of the way gimp handles tools and devices. You cant actually use the pad device to manipulate the image with a tool so any shortcuts you assign to it can only be for scripts and ui manipulation actions, any actions relating to tools will only affect tools while the pad itself is active. Because it is seldom used it runs very little tested code paths. Proper trace would be of interest for me as well. -- --Alexia ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
